Front Panel Operation

3.1 Introduction

This section contains a detailed explanation of the front panel operation

of the Analyzer488 IEEE 488 Bus Analyzer. It contains information
regarding setup, configuration, an explanation of how to use the front panel,
and a detailed description of all the keys and LED indicators.

3.2 Description

Front panel operation of the Analyzer488 provides simple, portable,

bench-top access to all of the Analyzer488's features. Two display modes,
bus display mode and memory view mode, show the state of the IEEE 488
bus or the contents of record memory. The front panel display shows bus
messages and bus data in either hexadecimal and ASCII format or in binary
format. Front panel LED indicators show bus signal states and Analyzer488
states at a glance. Command keys, menu keys, and edit keys provide
functions to monitor, record, and analyze bus activity.
